This latest release from July absolutely does not work. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled it several times. Nothing has changed in my network or my set up. When I do get it to load the second my iPad goes to sleep the app crashes and the whole UI disappears, and I have to literally shut down and restart not just the app, but also the mixer itself. ### 1/5 — Unstoppable update on the app! Now it won’t work? *2026-07-12, version 5.0.1* I just don’t get it, shouldn’t this app be checked before being put out onto the App Store? I soooo wished fender hadn’t gotten involved, i though this sort of thing might happen after they bought personas out. fender please just stick to guitar’s. PLEASE! ### 1/5 — Update Renders Your Expensive Mixer Useless. Disgusted. *2026-07-05, version 5.0.1* This version does not even connect to our AR24R. We have zero way of using our IEM system now. It seems like you have no intention on fixing this either after everyone’s complaints. How about you stick do what you do best, suing guitar companies and leave the stuff that used to work to true Presonus developers. I am beyond disappointed. I’d leave -10 stars if I could. ### 1/5 — No 1810 *2026-06-25* So my 1810 is dumped…. Thanks for nothing fender. ### 1/5 — Presonus not recognized *2026-06-24, version 5.0.1* Doesn’t recognize the Quantum es2. Fully returning my presonus devices. Fender has destroyed another brand. ### 1/5 — Does not work *2026-06-21, version 5.0.1* The app automatically updated and now does not work with our rm32 presonus mixer. ### 1/5 — Why?.. Absolute Katastrophe ! *2026-06-11* Unsere sämtlichen Presonus mixer sind nicht mehr zu steuern, seit diese App installiert ist. Die empfohlene Neu-Verbindung nach Registrierung ist unmöglich. Support unerreichbar! En Grund sich in zukunft gegen presonus hardware zu entscheiden . Wer macht so einen Schrott? Abolute Katastrophe!! ### 2/5 — Can Not Change Channel Names *2026-05-17, version 5.0.1* There is no way to change the channel scripts, you get numbers or icons only, so if you put Bass on channel 4 on the 16.0.2, there is no way to tell that to Universal Control, that Bass is on 4, you better remember where you put it. Hopefully this feature will be in future updates. I have asked for a fix but it falls on deaf ears ### 1/5 — App does not work *2026-05-13, version 5.0.1* Keep seeing “firmware update available” tapping does nothing. All my drivers are updated. The forum posts are scant at most. Probably will never buy a fender recording product ever again. Sad! ### 1/5 — It doesn't load *2026-05-03, version 5.0* It only loads the demo. ## Frequently asked questions about Fender Universal Control ### What does Fender Universal Control do?
